Description

FIELD OF TECHNOLOGY

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of acoustic wave filters, and in particular to an integration method and integration structure for a control circuit and a Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) filter.

BACKGROUND

The BAW filter is a device which implements electrical filtration based on the BAW theory by using acoustic resonance. It filters the resonance in the vertical direction through piezoelectric layers (AlN, ZnO and the like) between electrodes. The cavity BAW filter is the most successfully applied BAW filter at present. The main body structure of the cavity BAW filter is of a sandwich structure composed of an upper electrode, a piezoelectric layer and a lower electrode; and a cavity is respectively provided on two sides of the upper electrode and the lower electrode. When the acoustic signal travels to the top end of the upper electrode and the bottom end of the lower electrode, the acoustic wave is totally reflected due to the huge difference in acoustic impedance. Such a BAW filter has the small acoustic leak and may implement the high-Q value of the device.
When packaged, the single BAW filter is typically packaged as a discrete device, and then integrated. to a Printed Circuit Board (PCB). For the sake of the use requirement, it is frequent that a plurality of BAWs are integrated on one PCB hoard.
